DONALD ANTHONY GOODSELL Every man is a book if you know how to read him. Here we have a well-mannered boy with a pleasant smile. Don is tall, rather quiet, and a modest type of fellowg but underneath that exterior lies a sincerity which is hard to equal. Even though he works every afternoon, Don has managed to keep his marks on an average, well above passing. While he hasn't decided his plans for the future, we know that he will succeed in whatever he undertakes. Good luck, Don, from '52.
